"A Wonderful Fantasy/Adventure Romance."

Soul Magic is a fantasy adventure about the fragility
and power of love. Alanna, a fairy Princess, has ventured
from the land of Rune to ask for help from the one and
only
man she loved and left. Had she a choice she would not
have
approached Darrick Tadhg, but the survival of Rune depends
on his help, as does her son.

Once betrothed and very in love, Alanna and Darrick
were
on the verge of being married, when tragedy struck as she
was raped by Morfran, Darrick's enemy. Not wanting to face
Darrick, Alanna ran away back to Rune where she discovered
she was pregnant. When her son Caradoc was born, by all
appearances, he looked to be Morfran's son. However she
did
not let that stop her from loving Caradoc. Now he is only
5
summers old and has been kidnapped by Morfran.

Putting all pride and pain aside Alanna approaches her
lost love to ask for his help. But will he be willing to
help her save another man's son? Can he put aside his
anger
at her abandonment for the greater good of what must be
done?

Since Alanna left Darrick he has become a shell of the
man he once was. Although bitterness has fueled his life
he
finds it is not enough to resist the familiar pull of his
heart when Alanna reappears.

Soul Magic is a wonderful weave of love, tragedy,
magic,
and power. Ms. Whiddon's characters are interesting and
complicated giving the story a more believable quality.
Something I appreciated about this book was that you get
to
see her secondary characters come to completion as well,
which created a well-rounded story. And again, like her
previous books, Ms. Whiddon certainly has a way with her
excellent descriptions of setting and character
interactions. I definitely recommend this book as a
dynamic
magical fantasy romance.

The ancient magic of Rune is fading, and legends speak of mortals and fae joining together to renew it. Thus to Thorncliff Keep the fae Alanna goes, to seek him: the mortal whom she left at the altar. Betrothed from childhood, she has always loved Darrick Tadhg. The knight’s strong arms and mighty sword still cause her to shiver with desire. But a terrible wrong came between them, a terrible shame that she has no desire to reveal. No, Darrick will not want Alanna, not now, with her secret, after his life has been darkened by tragedy and when his keep is besieged. He will not want to leave on the journey they must undertake. But Alanna will, for the sake of her life and the sake of her kingdom, and for the sake of their love, convince Darrick of the power of their joined souls—and of Fate, which never meant for them to be apart.
